Turkish Thyme: The Aromatic Strength of the Mediterranean


Thyme is one of the Mediterranean's most versatile herbs, and Turkish thyme carries the strong, high-thymol profile prized across foodservice and ingredient manufacturing.

What defines quality

A clean grey-green colour, low stalk and foreign matter, consistent cut, and a high, stable thymol content. We supply thyme and thyme powder whole, rubbed, cut, or ground, processed under ISO 22000 / HACCP.

Where it is used

Seasoning and spice blends, meat and poultry programs, soups and sauces, retail packing, and herbal formulations. Request a quote.

Frequently asked questions

What is thymol and why does it matter?

Thymol is the dominant aromatic and antimicrobial compound in thyme. Higher thymol means a stronger, more stable aroma — important for seasoning blends, foodservice, and herbal programs.

Can I buy thyme and oregano together?

Yes. Both are Tuna Spice dried-herb staples and natural companions in Mediterranean seasonings; consolidating them from one İzmir source simplifies documentation and freight.
